The process of wall cladding with clapboard includes the following work: preparation of the base, panel fasteners, finishing. The main requirement that must be considered when planning to nail any wooden clapboard to the walls is the condition of the foundations - the surface must be perfectly flat.Since in reality it will be quite difficult to find such a wall in a house or apartment, you should first take care of creating a wooden or metal frame.

Surface plating is made by the following method.

• Installation of products can be performed both horizontally and vertically on the frame. In addition, it is often possible to find products laid with herringbone or diagonally. Fastener options are completely dependent on the preferences of the owners of the building. However, for the steam rooms you need to opt for a vertical arrangement of boards.
• Installation of lining to the crate is carried out with the help of nails, dowels or brackets, sometimes mounted on screws. For works with the ceiling, several types of fasteners are used at once, most often they are clamps and screws.
• The mount starts from the corner of the room. If klyaymery are used for mounting, then the part needs to be pushed into the groove of the wall panel, after which nails are driven into its holes.The subsequent board is installed according to a similar scheme - a new river is inserted into the groove of the previous product and secured with a kleimer.
• When mounting the material with nails or self-tapping screws, the element is hammered on the oblique into the board. After that it is necessary to disguise fasteners on the base of the wall paneling.
• Final finishing of the material involves painting or staining of wood for a harmonious combination with the interior of the room. Panels can be painted in any shade you like, ranging from white to bright and rich red or green colors.
• In addition, such a finish needs to close the edges on the lower and upper sides. To do this, use special fittings - it can be a regular plinth (fillet).
